Insomnia never comes to a man who has to get up exactly at six o'clock. Insomnia troubles only those who can sleep any time.

Elbert Hubbard

The best cure for insomnia is to get a lot of sleep.

W. C. Fields

Economics now drives politics. This gives us a system in which the relationship between power and politics is no longer fused. Power is global. We have an elite that now floats in global flows. It could care less about the nation-state, and it could care less about traditional forms of politics. Hence, it makes no political concessions whatsoever. It attacks unions, it attacks public schools, it attacks public goods. It doesn't believe in the social contract.

Henry Giroux

Oh, insomnia! Ah, well, I know a good cure for it... Get plenty of sleep.

W. C. Fields

I'm making tapes for insomniacs to use in the future. I'm going to sell them as a kit to cure insomnia.

Jonathan Turley

The cure for bad politics is the same as the cure for tuberculosis. It is living in the open.

Woodrow Wilson

In truth , mankind cannot be saved from without, by schoolmasters or any other sort of masters: it can only be lamed and enslaved by them. It is said that if you wash a cat it will never again wash itself. This may or may not be true : what is certain is that if you teach a man anything he will never learn it; and if you cure him of a disease he will be unable to cure himself the next time it attacks him.

George Bernard Shaw

Counting your blessings is a better cure for insomnia than counting sheep - you can fall asleep before you get through half of them.

Densey Clyne

Ever since I took the plunge into active politics, I faced a fair amount of attacks and criticism from political rivals, and I had learnt to take it with a pinch of salt.

Atishi

We cannot cure the evils of politics with politics.

Anais Nin

In general, there are patients with insomnia who - many patients with insomnia will actually over report the lack of sleep that they are getting.

Shelby Harris

Medicines cure diseases, but only doctors can cure patients.

Carl Jung

It's not an easy thing to captive-breed a falcon. You need to take extreme care of its diet and exercise and keep it close to its natural environment. Whenever the birds take ill, I only use Ayurveda to cure them.

Shahid Khan

Politics deals with externals: borders, wealth, crimes. Authentic forgiveness deals with the evil in a persons heart, something for which politics has no cure. Virulent evil (racism, ethnic hatred) spreads through society like an airborne disease, one cough infects a whole busload. When moments of grace do occur, the world must pause, fall silent, and acknowledge that indeed forgiveness offers a kind of cure. There will be no escape from wars, from hunger, from misery, from rancid discrimination, from denial of human rights, if our hearts aren't changed.

Philip Yancey

If you have insomnia, it's important to know you're not alone; there are millions of people also struggling with their sleep. Talk about what you're going through with others, including your doctor, and continue trying new things to help manage your insomnia.
